| Abstrakt: | Background: Gentiana macrophylla Pall. is a traditional Tibetan medicinal herb possessing antinociceptive and anti‐inflammatory activities. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified to be involved in the tumorigenesis of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, this study focused on investigating the function and mechanism of Gentiana macrophylla flavonoids (GF) and circ_0059665 in NSCLC progression. Methods: The contents of mRNA and protein were detected using qRT‐PCR and western blotting analysis. Cell proliferative and invasive abilities were evaluated by cell counting kit‐8, EdU, colony formation and transwell assays, respectively. M2 macrophage polarization was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results: GF treatment suppressed NSCLC cell proliferation, invasion and M2 macrophage polarization under hypoxic conditions. Circ_0059665 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and cells. Its expression was increased under hypoxic conditions but was reduced following GF treatment. Furthermore, circ_0059665 overexpression reversed the anticancer effects of GF on NSCLC cells under hypoxic conditions. Mechanistically, circ_0059665 acted as a sponge for miR‐512‐5p to regulate NOVA2 expression. Hypoxia decreased miR‐512‐5p levels, and increased NOVA2 levels in NSCLC cells, while these tendencies were abolished after GF treatment. Circ_0059665 silencing inhibited NSCLC cell proliferation, invasion and M2 macrophage polarization in hypoxic environments, which were counteracted by NOVA2 overexpression. Moreover, NOVA2 upregulation reversed the suppressive effects of GF on NSCLC cells with hypoxia treatment. In addition, GF impeded NSCLC tumor growth in vivo via suppressing circ_0059665. Conclusion: GF treatment in hypoxic environments suppressed NSCLC cell proliferation, invasion and M2 macrophage polarization via the circ_0059665/miR‐512‐5p/NOVA2 axis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
